Senator Goro'a resolution to Iteep Amer
icans oft armed merchantmen wns nlso In
troduced today. On Senator doro's mo
tion It was laid on tho tablo until to
morrow. Despite tho tension canoed by
tho rcadlnff of tho resolution, the Senate
held to Its agreement of yesterday nnd
refrained from any discussion ot tho In
ternational situation. Immediately after
I tho reading ot tho resolution the feenato
wen into secret session.
I rho first effort to discuss the Interna
tional submarlno Issue on mo noor ot mo
House wan smothered today by Speaker
Clarlc Representative Hulbert, of New
YorlC sought to havo put through a mo
tion to print B000 additional copies ot tho
rennlntlnn of IteDreHontativo McLcmore
yarning Americans oft belligerent ships.
CABINET BACKS TOESIDENT.
Tho Cabinet today assured President
"Wilson that its members wero behind
htm to a man in tho decision to refuse
to permit congressional Interference In
tho international situation. Even tho
members who havo been inclined to bcllovo
that conciliation tactics would bo worth
trying Indorsed tho declarations contained
in tho President's letter to Senator Stono
and his warnings to tho Houso leaders
who conferred with him earlier In tho day.
.BRYAN TAKES STAND.
Influence ot former Secretary of State
Bryan was swung against the President
in tho House. A telegram from Bryan
Indorsing tho plan to warn Americans off
armed ships wns received by Representa
tive. Bailey and circulated among House
members on the floor.
Bryan also stated ho will reach Wash
ington March 4. make nn address on
peace In a local theatre and remain hero
until March G. Bryan's friends de
clared, however, he would not make an
active fight for passage ot a warning
resolution.
Bryan's telegram s.ald:
"If Congress has the right to declaio
war, It certainly has tho right to promoto
peaco by restraining citizens from taking
unnecessary risks."
When the Houhe convened today Chair
man Flood, ot the Foreign Relations. Com
mittee, and other Democratic leaders wero
on guard to block any open discussion In
the House.
Although today's conference at tho
White House was arranged at tho request
of the 'House leaders, It was learned that
the President monopolized most of the
conversation. He complained that the
"loose talk" of certain Senators and Rep
resentatives was ically responsible for tho
entire controversy and Insisted that tho
agitation in Congress for legislation of
tho character proposed was "an unwar
ranted Interference with the constitutional
rights of tho executive branch of tho gov
ernment by the legislative division."
CONFERENCE FAILS.
Tho conference failed utterly to restore
amicable relations between tho White
House and the Congressional leaders.
Speaker Clark and Leader Kltchln are out
spoken advocates of tho suggested legis
lation, while Representative Flood favored
the proposition In a general way. Hut tho
leaders agieed to hold the House In check
as long us possible and In tho meanwhile
the Administration Is hopeful that public
sentiment throughout tho country will
change the 'attitude ot tho advocates of
the proposed legislation.
Reports that Senator Stone would re
algn as chairman ot the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee because of his dif
ferences with tho President were met by
a heated denial from the Senator today.
Speaker Clark was designated to do
the talking for tho House leaders. He
declared that President Wilson had been
This would give us more time for con
sideration of tho situation.
"Wo assured the President that In the
event of such a postponement all action In
Congress certainly would bo postponed
nnd that mennwhllo these various resolu
tions would remain exactly as they arc."
I'nder the present parliamentary situa
tion the Speaker said that It would bo
mine time before the wnrnlng resolution
CniiM be placed In a position where a
Mile could bo forced In the House There
wns no ohnnce, ho said, of the resolution
being brought up today. It would be Im
possible to get unanimous consent to con
sider the mcnsuic, he pointed out.
NO SPECIAL CONSIDERATION.
A motion to discharge tho Foreign Af
fairs Connvlttec from consideration of the
resolution nnd thus forco It on the floor
would only bo In order on the first nnd
third Mondnys of the month, tho Speaker
said. There was no means, ho said, of
obtnlnlng speclat consideration for tho
resolution.
"If tho measure Is reported by the
Foreign Afllnlrs Committee," he said, "It
would havo to go to tho foot of the cal
endar. That would mean wo could ii'it
rench It before July or August unless tho
rules committee would provide n special
rule for Us consideration The rulis com
mltteo Is the only means by which early
action on tho lesolutloli could bo secured."
The President's letter to Senator Slono
was expected In havo a great Influence
on public sentiment. It was pointed out
that In it the President Insisted that ho
had "no reason to question tho good faith
nnd fidelity to their promises" of tho
Teutonic Allies and that this seemed ef
fectively to dispose of the contention of
tho nntl-Adinlnlstrntlon lenders in Con
gress that "the nation was headed directly
Into the war."
Tho action of the President In declaring
that tho entire submarine question was
ono affecting the national honor lustend
of a struggle to force nctlon on n techni
cality nlso wns expected to hac a strong
Influcnco in permitting the executive
branch of the (lovernmenl to settle tho
question free from legislative Interference.
LETTER FROM STONE.
Senator Stone's letter to tho President,
to which Mr. Wilson replied, wns as fol
lows :
"Dear Mr. President Since Senator
Kern, Mr. Flood and I talked with you on
Monday evening, I am more troubled than
I have been for many a day. I havo not
felt authorized to repent our conversa
tion, but I havo attempted, In response to
numerous inquiries fiom my colleagues,
to state to them, within the confidence
that they should observe, my general un
derstanding of your attitude. I have
stated my understanding ot your nttltudo
to bo substantially as follows:
"That while you would deeply regret
tho rejection by Great Britain ot Mr.
Lansing's proposal for the dlsaratncnt of
merchant vessels ot the Allies, with the
understanding that Germany and her
allies would not fire upon a merchant
ship if she hauled to when summoned,
not attempting to escape, and that tho
Germany warships would only exercise
tho admitted right of lsltatlon nnd cap.
ture, and would not destroy the captured
ship except In circumstances that rea
sonably nssuicd the safety ot passengers
nnd crew ; you were of the opinion that
If Great Britain and her allies rejected
the proposal and Insisted upon arming
her merchant ships she would be wlthlh
her right under tho International law.
Also that you would feel disposed to
allow armed vessels to be cleared from
our ports; also that you are not favora
bly disposed to the Idea of this govern
ment taking any definite steps toward
preventing American citizens from em
barking upon armed merchant vessels.
Fuithermore, that ou would consider
It your duty. If a German warship would
tiro upon an armed merchant vessel of
the enemy upon which American citizens
were passengers, to hold Germany to
strict account.
"Numerous members of the Senate and
tho Houso liae called to discuss this
subject with me. I have felt that the
members of tho two houses who aro to
deal with this grave question weio en
titled to know, tho situation wo aro con
fronting as I understand it to bo. I think
I should say to you that the members of
both houses feel deeply concerned and
disturbed by what they read and hear,
f have heard of some talk to the effect
that some aro saying that after all It
may be possible that tho program of
picpaiedness, so called, has some relation
to just such a situation as we am now
called upon to meet.
"I havo counseled all who have talked
with mo to keep cool ; that this whole
business is still the subject of diplomacv
and that you are striving to the utmost
to bring about some peaceable adjust
ment, and that In tho meantime Congress
should bo caioful not to 'ball up' a
diplomatic situation by any kind of busty
and Ill-considered action. However, the
situation In Congress is such as to ex
cite a senso of deep concern In the minds
of careful and thoughtful men. I have
felt that It Is duo to you to say this
much.
"I think you understand my personal
attitude with respect to this subject As
much and as deeply its I would hate to
radically disagree with you, I find It dlf-
TO FORBID OUR PEOPLE TO EXERCISE
RIGHTS WOULD BE DEEP HUMILIATION'
WOODROW WtLSOti
President Wilson's letter to Senator Stone on the submarine war
fare controversy follows!
WASHINGTON. Feb. 24, 101(3.
Mv Dear Senator I very warmly npnrecinte vour kind and frank
letter of today nnd feel thnt it calls for an equally frank reply.
You arc right in assuming that I shall do everything in my power
to keep the United States out of war. I think the country will feel no
uneasiness about my course in that respect. Through many anxious
months I have striven for that object, nmidst difficulties more manifold
than can have been apparent upon the surface, nnd so far I havo suc
ceeded. I do not doubt that I shall continue to succeed.
The course which the Central European Powers have announced their
intention of following with regard to undersea warfare Recms for tho
moment to threaten insuperable obstacles; but its apparent meaning is so
manifestly inconsistent with explicit nssurnnccs recently given us by
those Powers with regard to their treatment of merchant vessels on the
high sens that I must believe that explanations will presently ensue which
will put n different aspect upon it. We have had no reason to question
their good faith or their fidelity to their promises in the past, and I, for
one, feel confident thnt wo shall have nono in the future.
Itut in any event, our duty is clear. No nation, no group of nations,
hns the right, while war is in progress, to alter or disregard the principles
which nil nations have agreed upon in mitigntion of the horrors nnd
sufferings of war; and if the clear rights of American citizens should ever
unhappily be abridged or denied by any such action wc should, it scents
to me. have in honor no choice as to what our own course should be.
For my own part, I cannot consent to nny abridgment of the rights
of American citizens in nny respect. The honor nnd self-respect of tho
nation arc involved. Wc covet peace and shall preserve it at any cost
but the loss of honor. To forbid our people to exercise their rights for
fenr we might be cnllcd upon to vindicate them would be n deep humiliation
indeed. It would bo an implicit all but explicit acquiescence in the
violation of tho rights of mankind everywhere and of wlintevcr nation or
allegiance. It would bo n deliberate abdication of our hitherto proud
position ns spokesmnn even nmidst the turmoil of war for tho lnw and the
right. It would make everything this Government has attempted nnd
everything thnt it has achieved during this terrible struggle of nations
meaningless nnd futile.
It is important to reflect that if in this instance wo allowed expediency
to take the place of principle the door would inevitably be opened to still
further concessions. Once accept a single abatement of right and many
other humiliations would certainly follow, and the whole fine fabric of in
ternational law might crumble under our hands piece by piece. Whnt we
are contending for in this matter is of the very essence of the things that
have made America a sovereign nation. She cannot yield them without
conceding her own impotency as a nation and making virtual surrender of
her independent position among the nations of the world.
I am speaking, my dear Senator, in deep sympathy, without heat,
with a clear consciousness of the high responsibilities of my office, and
ns your sincere and devoted friend. If we should unhappily differ, wc shall
differ as friends; but where issues so momentous ns these arc involved
we must, just because we are friends, speak our minds without reservation.
Faithfully yours,
WOODROW WILSON. I

PENNSYLVANIA CONGRESSMEN
DIVIDED ON RESOLUTION
Majority of Republicans Against It,
While Democrats Are Split
Bu a Staff Corrriiiondrnt
WASHINGTON. Feb. 25. Virtually
eery Republican member of the Penn
sylvania congressional delegation Is op
posed to the passage of n icsolutlon calling
on the I'lesldunt to wain Americans to
stny oft armed belligerent met chant ves
sels. Despite this fact, tho delegation Is
not unanimous In tho belief that such a
icsolutlon should not be adopted. Rep
resentative Samuel II. Miller, of Mercer,
one of the Republicans, who has taken a
stand against most of his colleagues, de
clared: ".Most nssureflly I would vote for such
it resolution. It's a sensible, leusonnble
resolution to compel people to come In out
of tho nilu, who have not dense enough to
do so without persuasion.
Philadelphia members of Congiess wcie
disinclined to make known their position
with reference to the pioposed resolution
of warning.
"The situation Is too delicate to be dis
cussed now," said Representative J Hump
ton Mooie. "At tho present time the con
troveiHj Is between the President mid
members of his party."
Representative George W. Edmonds:
"Whether tho resolution should be put
through depends cntiicly upon circum
stances as they develop In tho next few
days. Tho situation has so many dlffoietit
phases and so many elements of danger
that It would be my opinion that Congress
should not take any action unless It llnds
such action nbsolutcly necessary to keep
tho country fiom war."
Representative Peter E Costello: "I
am not going to commit myself on this
question, because I believe the contio
veisy will work Itself out. Intimations
have been given from the White House
that tho situation with Germany is not
so serious."
Rcpiesentntlves .lohn R. IC. Scott. Wil
liam S. Vnro and George H. Graham were
not In Washington today.
Representative A. G. Dewalt, Democrat,
of Allcntown, said: "1 don't bellevo there
Is any revolt. In case this resolution Is
brought up on the floor I shall listen pa
tiently to both sides, then vote as 1 see
fit." .
Representative Henry J. Steele. Demo
crat, of Easton. declared ho had just re
turned to Washington nnd had not had
time to "get the Inside" of the discussion.
He said ho had not read tho proposal
of revolting members of' Congress. j
Representative Louis T. McFnddeil, Re
publican, of Canton: "I havo talked to
most of the Republican members of the
Pennsylvania delegation, and I feel cer
tain that almost every one Is opposed
to the passage of the proposed resolution.
r nm In favor of supporting tho President
nt this, time. If you break down Interna
tional law In one Instance, you cannot
stand on It later."
Representative Worth Halley, Demo
crat, of Johnstown: "It Is only common
hoise sense to keep Americans off armed
vessels during u war. The resolution
should be passed."
tleprestntallve Henry W Temple, n
, publican "I am not in ravor oi w
pARsnge of such n resolution at this time.
I do not believe It will ever come to a
vote In tho House."
Representative George P. Uarrow. Re
publican, Philadelphia "Wo don't want
to pass any resolution that would legalize
a heretofore prohibited practice. At tho
same time, we mUst get n clear under
standing ns to when a vefsel Is armed
for offensive or defensive purposes."
Representative John 11. Fnrr. Repub
lican Scranton: "I am with the Presi
dent on this mnttcr."
Representative At. M Garland, Repub
lican, Pittsburgh: "I think 1 am for tho
resolution. I nm opposed to war on nny
excuse. Tho mere exercise of a right n
man may have to travel on nn armed ship
nnd thereby endanger tho lives of hun
dreds of thousands of people, docs not
wnrrrtnt him In exercising that right."
Representative Benjamin K. Focht, Re
publican, Lewlsburg: "I bellevo that most
If not nil of this furor Is due to Congress
being In the dark about the real situation. 1
Wc have had our only Information irnm
the papers. Wo are told In one minute
there Is no danger nnd In another, thnt
llieio Is a crisis. I think this rcslstcnco
Is reslstenee of n straw man, nnd due
largely to the Imminence of a presidential
campaign."
Representative John J. Casey. Demo
cint, of Wllkes-llarre: '"1 have some very
decided views on this question, but feel It
would bo unwise to state them nt this time
when the President fnces n serious situa
tion." Other members of the Pennsylvania del
egation were not at the Capitol today
Republican Leader Mnnn declined to
innke any statement as to what the Con
gressmen of his party would do should
the resolution reach the floor of the House.
f It Is generally understood thnt Mr. Mann
would attempt to lino his party worners
up against the passage of the resolution.
